Subject: Questions about SSDF ELO Rating

I have some questions about SSDF ELO Rating: some simple, some not so simple:

1)  I think the SSDF ELO ratings have been 'knocked back' at times, to make them
more 'realistic'.  I think there was a 100-pt deduction recently.  Is this
right, when was it, and were there other discontinuities in rating?

2)  Many more games are played under the SSDF flag than for FIDE ELO ratings.
Does this produce an 'inflationary' effect, or some other trend which is more
pronounced in the SSDF 'community' than in the FIDE community?
